COOS NO.7: 18th - 20th November 2016

Welcome to the archive of Colour Out of Space 7. Over the weekend Brian Turner, music director of New Jersey's WFMU, and sound artist Ilia Rogatchevsk of Resonance FM were at venues throughout the city recording performances, panels and interviews. Take a listen:

Resonance FM from COOS

Ilia Rogatchevsk's hour long intro to COOS 7 includes Myriam Van Imschoot & Doreen Kutzke, Matt Krefting, Claire Potter, Birgit Ulher, Stephen Cornford, Kent Tankred, Johannes Bergmark, Steve Beresford, Tania Chen & Stewart Lee.

Wire - Free Form Radio Panel

Derek Walmsley, editor of Wire, hosted a panel at Brighton's Hope and Ruin on contemporary broadcasting and the legacy of freeform radio - 'the Golden era of radio today!'. Joining Derek were Brian Turner and Fabio Roberti of WFMU, independent curator and broadcaster Bronac Ferran who hosts the programme Making Conversations on Resonance FM, Luke Younger aka Helm who DJs monthly on online station NTS, and Daniel De Wereldvermaarde Botanicus (AKA Cassis Cornuta) of Antwerp's Radio Centraal.

Come On, Come Down! #11 – Resonance FM

London-based sound artist Ilia Rogatchevski presents a six-hour ‘atmospheric re-imagining’ of the weekend - loosely divided into two hour sections representing each day.

WFMU - The Brian Turner Show at COOS

Turner's WFMU COOS special features 'gorgeous soundshaping from New Englander Matt Krefting, Australian sound/visual artist Matthew P. Hopkins, a claustrophobic collaboration between Schimpfluch-Gruppe veteran and Tochnit-Aleph label founder Daniel Lowenbruck with Brazilian-born visual artist Marcellvs L, plus a final head scratching set from the Clappy Shandy Dads (featuring Dylan Nyoukis with members of Hyperion Ensemble, Vibracathedral Orchestra, and Chastity Potato)'.

Some insights from the weekend can be found here and here, and there's an intrepid audio diary recorded each night by Matt Dalby, revolving footage from the Radiophonic Laboratory of Antimatter and documentation of Stephen Cornford's magnificent, kinetic sculpture Constant Linear Velocity.
